    Why is this question being asked? If you cosign manny turning down 40 mil no ppv from floyd then you know why bradley turned down the manny deal oFfered for the rematch.

    The deal wasn't that good.

      Fighting Marquez gives him the opportunity to put a new name on his resume.

        I think Bradley believes he has a better chance to beat Marquez than he does of beating Pacquiao in a rematch. He may say he will beat Pacquiao easily in a rematch but actions speak louder than words. He knows Pacquiao will be going full out for the KO in a rematch. I think Marquez will KO Bradley. Bradley did not look very good to me in his last fight. I thought he lost that fight. Some fighters go over the hill early and I think Bradley might be on the way down at 30 years old. Pacquiao and Bradley both have tough fights coming so I'll know better how they rate against each other when those fights are over.

          Bradley lost his last two fights and just got lucky. Marquez will beat his ass for $1.5m and there goes the $6m into thin air.

            Maybe I'm wrong maybe JMM is the guy to beat now and he offerers Bradley uhh... I have no idea... Not more money, not more fame, not more anything... Except for respect in the boxing community if he wins? But Pac would offer that too... Is it possible that people will be more impressed if Bradley beat JMM than Manny?
            Manny had his chance for revenge and he didn't take it. Now Bradley has the chance to add JMM's name to his resume and then he can demand much more from Pac for a rematch.

              Joel Diaz said that they do not want to fight in Asia. Bradley might be hoping that a win over Marquez will put him in a better position for negotiations in a Pac rematch.

                That doesnt make sense. Pac's share from that 40m would be like 10% more than he gets normally. Bradley's not gonna sniff 4m vs JMM

                  Nobody here really knows how that 6 million was offered. How the contract if any looked liked or what it contained. You can offer everything you want by mouth but in writing is different.
